Valid or not?

Post by Lithe_Joint »

I am sick and tired of my anoractic existance* and feel it is time to get out.

Do I have a vaild reason to get out on my own while my better half sits at home?

Background:
She gets out with her palls every Thursday. Be it a movie night, joll night or whatever. She is a people's person.
I get my night off, funking around in my workshop every Friday. I am an introvert.

Difference:
My Angel is surrounded by good friends, and I know them to be hooligans at stages. Call it stress relief. She has good standards in my opinion.
I like being on my own, surrounded by a whole bunch of strangers and behaving like a hooligan ripping up a dance floor. Call it stress relief, if you will. I have good standards in my opinion.

Should I go, or should I stay? The die is tumbling on the table...

Only go if you feel threatened that she will bump into a long lost b/f. But also life is about sacrifices so my game plan would be this:

Go with her every couple of weeks, let her see how agitated you are about being in a crowd and she will soon get peeved off with you because you are killing the mood. :P

Like I said its about sacrifices go once a month at least she will be happy to have you tag along every now and then. :)

I'm not sure what an anoractic existence is, chief - I don't think it's even a real word - but we'll let Rustypup deal with that...

If you want to go out because you feel the need to make mince meat out of a few dance floors, then go for it.

Is she nagging you because you don't go out?
Does she want you to go out with her?

It sounds like you need to go out. You trust her enough to let her go out without you - you should trust yourself to be good on your own. I can't see how going out on your own can be fun though - that is just me. You may be married but you do not have to go everywhere together - you are still individuals. Go and let your hair down :lol:

jamin_za,

"anoractic"? I'll go out on a limb and say that there is no such word, unless he is trying to call himself an "anorak", which in British slang is
a person who has an obsessive interest in that which might be considered incomprehensible or tedious by most people. Such a person is often
socially inept.

Methinks Lithe was testing us with that asterisk he left dangling. ;-)

To be honest, I thought this was a suicide threat!

Yes, go out. If you like going out by yourself... I used to do it, but only if I knew that I had a good chance of bumping into someone I know there. Otherwise I don't see the point, I could put headphones on and just go to "Club Duvet", that place rocks! But each to his own, right? I'm sure your girl will understand. Unless she doesn't trust you or is insecure? Going clubbing by yourself is not very common behaviour (social introvert?), so I can see why she would be suspicious if she doesn't know you. Although, from Tribble's response, I get the impression that you're married so I don't see how this is likely.

As to him being married - I am guessing. He did not introduce her as his gf. That means he has been with her for a while.
